@ETpro You don’t have to go back in time at all to find somewhere where life is cheap, if only for the people on the taking end of it and where violence rules. You just need to make sure you’re not someplace or somewhen where ETpro, all by his lonesome is not thoroughly and abysmally out-manned and out-gunned, and those places are few and far between, my friend. Be careful out there. If all you’re packing yourself, your wits and “an AR-15, a few cases of ammo, and a couple of cases of grenades” I suggest you run as fast as you can in the other direction first, negotiate second and try to blast your way out only if all else fails. There are a lot of mean, angry, heartless mother fuckers out there in the world, armies of them, lots of armies of them, all over the place. Be careful. On second thought, leave the guns behind; make a quick but lethal killing in the stock market and get your ass back here, in one piece, ASAP. :-)
And I’m sure you’ll be in need of some wise counsel upon you return. Feel free to look me up. My rates are quite reasonable. :-)
